We are an independent investment fund manager belonging to Corporación Financiera Azuaga, a Spanish-origin business group specialized in financial and investment services.
Anta AM was born with a clear international vocation and the objective of meeting the market demand for a distinctive, innovative, and customized product.
Our Private Equity Investment Team has extensive experience in supporting Spanish entrepreneurs through the origination and execution of investments in the SME arena, with the aim of creating added value alongside Management Teams to help companies grow organically and via acquisitions.
Our experience shows us that there is a clear opportunity to boost growth on the Spanish ecosystem, where Anta AM can act, not only as a financial investor, but also helping companies from a strategic and operational standpoint. With these investments, our purpose is to contribute with job creation, company professionalization and ESG impact generation across the business models of our portfolio companies.
Our Investment Team has deep experience in this area, having executed 24 deals in the low-mid market segment in Iberia, and having managed over €330m across different private equity vehicles in the past.

In addition to the Private Equity strategy, we have recently launched two additional verticals related to Direct Lending and Real Estate. As our latest project, we have launched a semi-liquid open-end fund together with TQ Eurocredit, a company specialised in alternative investments, with the aim of financing real estate development projects in a context of high demand for housing construction in Spain. Within Direct Lending, we envisage the potential structuring of alternative financing vehicles for SMEs in Spain to complement the equity offering through senior debt and mezzanine debt instruments customized to the need of each company.
We set ourselves apart.
Quality is ingrained in our DNA; we pursue excellence in our investments, products, and client services. Our approach is centered on capital growth under strict risk controls.
Leveraging the extensive experience and knowledge of our management teams, we have developed our own methodology in the investment process based on technology, algorithmization, and artificial intelligence. This enables us to offer you the best market opportunities.
Anta AM’s employees, partners, and management team have their own wealth invested in the products alongside that of our clients. Proximity and direct access to our investment teams are among our differentiating factors.
At Anta AM, we offer a full range of traditional investment funds tailored to each type of client.
Our clients include large financial institutions, as well as individuals who invest directly through our platform. We have the capacity, technology, and necessary structure for creating customized investment vehicles and delegating mandates.
